its a really good price for a heavy duty winch like this. the only problem i think is that it weighs well over 100 pounds, but its a really good, powerful winch.

Failed First Test - D. Melton -As a test I set this to pull on a small stump from a small bush that had died over a year ago, an azalea so that you know how small I'm talking about. The control for freewheel and engage seemed way too stiff before starting the test, but I got it to engage. With a very slight pull, it starting to grind, so I engaged the lever again, this time tighter. The winch began to pull tighter, but nowhere near it's capacity (I would think, at least) when it starting the grinding noise again. This time, there was no more adjustment remaining with the lever. At this time, I can pull the cable against the winch. Obviously this must go back to Sam's Club! I will not accept a trade. Too bad, I had high hopes. Guess you really do get what you pay for!
Do not buy this winch - tow man -
We have recently purchased 10 of these winches, 5 from sams club and 5 from amazon. Of the 10 we purchased 6 have failed within the first month of use. Of those 6 that failed 2 of them failed on the 1st day. Noticed that half of them have one style release for free spool and the other half is different which makes me believe they know there is a problem with the design. The problem we are having with them is they will not stay engaged, 2 of them (brand new) would not engage at all. We went with these simply for the price since we had to buy so many, we are junking these and going back to warn. These are very unreliable and can not be trusted.
